Firmitas - Utilitas -Venustas Firmness; Utility & Delight -these are the three basic purposes architecture must serve as defined by Vitruvius, the ancient Roman architect. Being the mother of all art forms, the creations of an Architect are live testaments of his work which are timeless. No Architect can disown or deny his work. The purpose of this book -Introduction to Architecture- is to act as an initiation to this noble subject for newcomers and simultaneously be a refresher for experienced professionals. A line is not only a line in Architecture. It is a part of a dream. A dream nurtured by the interplay of solids and voids, light and shade, colour and texture, foreground and background against a canvas called Nature. Since the target audience of this book is primarily freshers, the contents of the book has been kept plain and simple. The idea is to inculcate the basics of this learning called Architecture and prepare them mentally to take the wonderful challenges in life as successful Architects.

Foreword

21 Augu st 2016

Joy Sen, Ph.D.

Professor and Head, Ranbir and Chitra Gupta School of Infrastructure Design and Management

Professor, Department of Architecture and Regional Planning, IIT Kharagpur

I t has been a matter of great delight to pen the Foreword of a work of a dear senior colleague of mine, Architect Indranil Sen, incidentally his third book titled Introduction to Architecture.

Architect Indranil Sen, was always a very serious student and a professional, and I am happy that he has now started to pen down his experience in the field of Architecture and share the knowledge he has acquired during his career spanning 36 year, through exposure to many national and international projects. While he has worked in top positions in leading Consulting and Developers houses, he has always remained grounded to the basics of this noble profession .

I am especially happy for the publication of this book as this is aimed for the freshers and beginners , who, I am sure, will get their bearings corrected, once they have gone through this book.

The book has fourteen chapters and covers the entire spectrum of knowledge that a newcomer to this field needs. It will be well said that there are not many books available on this kind of bandwidth of knowledge that this book covers, and I am sure that this would turn out to be a handbook of information for Architects.

I feel honoured and privileged to write a Foreword for a book authored by a dear friend of mine. His dedication of giving back to the students what he has learnt in his long successful career is indeed adorable and I feel proud for him.

His first book titled Theory of Architecture-C2C has already become a rage among the students and professional community and I am sure that this book will become even more useful and sought-after.

I am absolutely amazed by the contents of the book which has been put down in such simple words so that every minute of detail is covered and understood. In short, this book will work as a store house of information, as it categorically records all the facets of the knowledge base that a newcomer should be informed about.

I wish him and this book all the success.
